I had downloaded the .run version of this file while getting confused perusing the various posts... It did not install cleanly the first time since I was missing python. Installed python etc. and re-ran.

Discombobulated everything and got hplis and foo from your instructions. Installed those and now have printer working with hpcups.

Unfortunately though it still only works from a hard wire on the LAN, cannot get the laptop to 'see' the printserver over the wireless even though Internet access works (writing this from the laptop). I will have to delve into my router manual. Applied firewall fix mentioned in another thread.

Here is a good general rule for setting up printers in Puppy. Only use PETs that you get from the forum. They have been built and tested specifically for Puppy.
